Just a week before their marriage, Christine's fiance calls off the wedding, leaving her heartbroken. With hopes of helping her through a difficult time, Christine's best friend Jessica enrolls them both on a humanitarian mission in Peru, to work at an orphanage called El Girasol, The Sunflower.

It is while working at the orphanage that Christine meets Paul Cook, a successful and charismatic American doctor who has fled the States after one fatal day took away his career, his faith, and the woman he loved.

Unplanned events lead Paul and Christine into the jungle of the Amazon, where Christine must confront her deepest fears, and she, and Paul, must both learn to trust and love again.

This is a simplistic story, but incredibly hard to put down. In the end, this book stayed with me and inspired me more than I thought it would. I strongly recommend it.

Simple but memorable

Would you listen to The Sunflower again? Why?

I would listen to the story again because as a nurse, I plan to retire and provide care and love to others. In this story, the protagonist does that out of love and healing for himself.

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When the female protagonist came back to be with the love of her life.

Any additional comments?

Will be reading The Promise by same author next.

Great love story

Nothing was bad - I love this author! He has a wonderful way with words! I hate spiders too but that doesn’t kill the story!

Love the story

This novel was written in the voice of an observer and the reading style appropriately reflected this. Scott's rather flat presentation included minimal voice variations for the dialogue. It worked for me.

The Sunflower was set in South American and amounted to a travelogue mingled with romance and the themes of life paths and choices. Added to this was the perennial issue of third world poverty and first world guilt: is there any point helping 5,000 children when a hundred million children need help. Christian values are a subtle backdrop to a the novel's resolutions of the Big Questions. I must say I liked his analysis of a tendency to litigate rather rather than take personal responsibility (in this case, blame the doctor rather than lifestyle).

As a narrative it was pleasing, the settings were interesting and the romantic interest was, well, only just ok. In the end I felt that a well crafted formula constrained an idea that had unrealised potential. For all that, it was a worthwhile listen.

By the way, I enjoyed the cameo appearance of the Australian firefighter -- good accent and good text!

Interesting reader

Thought provoking book. Would love to read a Part 2 about Jessica - or about Pablo and Roxana's lives in the US. Campbell Scott's performance was excellent.

Another great book by Richard Paul Evans
